We spent hours out in the only sun we've had this month, enjoying the once again flowing falls. Then we spent the evening at Pete's trail of lights and driving around looking at lights.

No Sew Superhero Cape
I made a superhero cape for my nephew Max for his fourth birthday. I hope he loves it!
I followed this tutorial, but I made a few changes. I started with a piece of felt that was 18x36 inches. I wanted it to be longer than the cape in the tutorial. I also rounded the bottom corners. Then I cut out an "M" for Max using my Cricut machine. The only other thing I did differently was sew my velcro on for added strength, I know how hard kids pull things apart ;).
December Daily - Day two
Today we went out in the cold rain to pick out our very first real Christmas tree. Since we aren't going back to Illinois for Christmas, we get to partake in the piney goodness.

December Daily - Day one
I got suckered in to December daily by my friend Christina. Now to see if I can actually keep up with it. I do like the idea of sneaking in a few crafty moments each day, but loathe taking, printing, and planning pictures everyday. As you can see from my day one page, the photos are iphone randoms. I might need some cheering on to keep this up :)
Details: Paper is from My Mind's Eye's 12 Days of Christmas line. I plan to use the entire 6x6 paper pad I bought of this line. 25 days countdown tag is from Little Yellow Bicycle.

Sunken Gardens
During our trip to Tampa, FL last November for a friend's wedding, we visited the beautiful Sunken Gardens.
Details: On this layout I tried something new for me. I stitched like crazy. I used my SewEasy tool and mat to pierce the holes for the zig zag pattern. And then I stitched for hours.
Coral paper is Flamingo Lily by Core'dinations. Grey swirls are the B side of a paper called Text Me from the Midterm line by Bella Blvd. Chiplets are by SEI and are part of their On The Coast line. Mini letters are from the Line Twist line by My Mind's Eye.
House Hunting
Sorry the colors are wonky on these pictures! That's what happens when you are a bad blogger and are trying to catch up on a lot of stuff.
Back in February, when we were house hunting, my sister was with us when we put an offer in on a house our first time. These pictures are what she snapped after when she said "look excited". It was quite the roller coaster journey.
Details: Paper is by We R Memory Keepers. Blue strip is by Bazzill Basics. Letters and felt embellishments are by Pebbles.
